Re: [GNC] Gnucash-created "closing" entries
Stan, There is one other question which may be pertinent. I am assuming the gains and losses you are referring to are realized gains or losses and not unrealized gains or losses. If they are, should they not be reporting in an Income:Investment account rather than directly into Equity. Depending on whether they are taxable or not they could report under Taxable or Non-taxable subaccounts of Income. Investment income is normally regarded as ordinary income in most jurisdictions. If they are unrealized gains or losses, it is a common procedure to record them under Equity where you need to track them, but these should not normally be part of any closing procedure (not usually taxable) as they are part of the permanent accounts. That is also why Assets and Liabilities are not closed during a closing procedure only the temporary Income and Expense accounts for the period. Usually any taxation calculations for the closed period will produce a taxation liability in the next period but would not normally involve unrealized gains/losses. See https://smallbusiness.chron.com/journal-entry-record-realized-loss-investment-36486.html. Any advice about this here needs to be considered as advisory/illustrative only and used with caution. You should seek professional accounting advice about how to record your gains/losses and legacies relevant to your jurisdiction. Accounting for legacies can depend a lot on local legislation and may or may not be classified as income depending upon the circumstances. For example, when my wife received a legacy from her mother, the capital value of the legacy itself was not taxable under our local legislation, but any income received from it was thereafter.

It’s been reported by a few users over the years, but never with enough detail to figure the problem out or for developers to reproduce it.

Re: [GNC] Gnucash-created "closing" entries
Stan, At the present moment there does not appear to be any way to do what you need to do. There is no option in the current close book procedure for optionally setting the close date to anything else but the close date for the period +12 hrs. This is set as the time of the transactions generated to close the books. I would raise a bug on bugs.gnucash.org describing your problem, if no-one suggests an easier solution, This won't resolve your immediate problem but will alert the main developers of the need to address your problem longer term Someone else may be able to come up with a better way of resolving your problem so treat the below as a last resort. First you need to ensure your data file is uncompressed(https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/GnuCash_XML_format). Then exit GnuCash, make a backup of the original datafile before editing it. The only suggestion I could make at this stage would be perhaps to use a text editor to locate and edit your additional transactions in your data file and set their transaction date-time to after the GnuCash generated closing transaction time. The hard part may be locating the correct transactions. If you note what the memo fields are in GnuCash before you exit it for the transactions you need to locate and/or alter you should be able to locate the splits containing them which will be within the transactions. Verify carefully that you have the right transactions though. If you have any problems, restore a copy from your backup of the datafile (keeping the original copy though) and try again. There is a copy of a transaction record from my datafile at the end of this post so you have some idea fo what to look for. You will need to first find one of the GnuCash closing transactions and note the date-time it was posted i.e. see the section like: 2015-08-02 20:59:00 +1000 Looking quickly at the code, it appears the same date-time is used for all closing transactions so it should be possible to then locate your additional transactions and change them to a date-time after the date-time noted from the GnuCash closing transactions. Perhaps add a minute but be careful that the time you add doesn't change the date i.e. time goes past 23:59:59. Save the file and then reopen with GnuCash.

GnC method lets you ignore the close accounts step as it knows about the accounting period (you did set that up) and that Income and Expense accounts start over automatically -- even if you have prior year's transactions in them. The only advantage I see to running the close books transaction is that it books the retained earnings to the account(s) you want rather than just showing it as an accumulated retained earnings on the Balance Sheet report. The downside is if you ever have to make adjustments to prior year's activity you will need to either adjust the two close books transactions or delete them and re-close that year.

Ongoing . . . . .
I have now been through 8 monthly iterations of my newer Amex qif
importations. Still no auto account allocation generation as
suggested will eventually occur. (Yet my long-term Mastercard
account .qif downloads continue to import and allocate correctly.)
In my frenetic searching, I find this file: /.gnucash/qif-accounts-map.
It seems to be the memory source of previous transaction. It's a long
file that obviously has followed me over the years. In it I recognise
that, typically, the Mastercard allocations Line Description has
the correct account allocation recorded.
So I searched a recent Amex transaction that has twice previously been
manually corrected from "Unspecified" to it's correct Expense account
yet this is what is recorded inter alia:
("ROMEO S FOODHALL SUTHER SUTHERLAND" "ROMEO S FOODHALL SUTHER
SUTHERLAND" (9 8 0 3 4 2 11 12 5 6) #f "Unspecified" #f #t).
Sorry about the long preamble. ):
*1. Once designated "Unspecified" how/when, and by what means, does the
correct allocation be recorded?
*2. Is there a difference between manual correction while in QIF
Download mode and after Import has been completed?
*3. What do the numerals and #'s mean?
*4. Shall I upload the said qif-accounts-map file for you?

Re: [GNC] Basic Question (I hope) - End of Year Procedure
Thank you David, you're right, I don't need to 'close the books' as the accounts are only for assessing where my personal expenditure is going, and keeping track of 'cash-flow'. I hadn't thought about 'reports.' I've now discovered how to set date parameters to produce a report, and when the report is displayed on the screen, it's easy to cut and paste info into an excel file to keep for 'prosperity' and playing around with budgets. I had in the past tried to export an account into a format for Excel. But failed several times, the above 'cut and paste' have worked well. Thank you for the links, they're invaluable to understanding how GnuCash works.

Thanks for your reply. I understand why you would say that the closing entries should be the last transactions, but let me explain why that doesn't work for me. The Gnucash closing entries are only two of about half a dozen closing entries that I have. I make a distinction between (a) ordinary income and expenses, and (b) several non-routine types of income or expense that I can't plan for. (a) are Income and Expense type accounts, and GC closes them into an Equity account called Ordinary Income Summary. (b) are things like Gain or Loss on Investments, or Legacies, which would dwarf ordinary income and expenses, and they are Equity accounts, not Income or Expenses. When I "close the books", GC generates two transactions, one summarizing income and one summarizing expenses. Then to have a transaction showing net income, I have to create it manually: Debit: Ordinary Income Summary $500.00 Credit: Ordinary Income Summary $425.00 Credit: Net Worth $ 75.00 Naturally, that transaction must follow the "close the books" transactions, since I don't know gross income and total expenses until after that transaction is created. And then my others: Debit: Gain or Loss on Investments: $ .XX Credit: Net Worth$ .XX And so forth, for the other non-ordinary accounts. I know you suggested that I should create the closing transactions for income and expenses myself, but there are probably 50 accounts, so that seems like a lot of work. Surely there's a way within the GUI to make the special "closing" transactions into just regular transactions, so that I can enter the half-dozen final closing transactions and have them in the right order. -- Stan Brown the_stan_br...@fastmail.fm https://BrownMath.com http://OakRoadSystems.com/ ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.

Then do the internal transactions that DO affect income expenses (like recording depreciation) and again make a copy. Now you can do the "close" transaction(s) and make a copy "post close". IF there are "adjustment" transactions to be entered, do them and again make a copy you name for the next year or simply copy "post close" to that.

Re: [GNC] Increase default font on register v3.3 windows 10
NICE, Thank you GTI.
You know, if I had found this early on:
For settings.ini file:
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\gtk-3.0\settings.ini
For CSS file
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash\gtk-3.0.css
And this early on, it would have saved me hours!

Glad to know that the issue is solved!
Well . . . , if you've been bitten by the bug of the MOD fever and really like
a look in your GnuCash, maybe that interests you:

Nevermind, I found it.
#account_tree {
font-size: 1.2em;
}
And it goes in the same file. Hope this helps someone else
THANK YOU! GT

Correction:
If you have not fixed my previous error (Missing backslash), the correct path
is %USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash\gtk-3.0.css.
In standard conditions, this works for me, and for everyone on W10.
"These settings can be seen when the preference setting
'Register\Use GnuCash built-in color theme' and/or
'Account\Show account color as background color' is unset."
Help sites:
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/GTK3#Visual_Styling
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/chap-css-overview.html
If none of this works, your issue is not setup.
A good attempt would be:
Make a backup first.
Remove GnuCash, delete (or Rename) the %USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash\
folder, run the Sfc /scannow command at the command promp, reinstall GnuCash
with admin privileges and repeat the procedure of my first post.
Good luck.

Hi G,
When I saw your response on my phone I ran to my computer to try it.
No love. Default register font size did not change.
I tried sheet, tried .sheet
No variation worked.
In fact, I think Ihad already tried this.
I did double check that use default theme was unchecked in preferences.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Alfred

Hi Alfred,
If they do not already exist, insert these lines,:
sheet {
font: 15px arial, sans-serif;
color: white;
}
in your "C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\GnuCashgtk-3.0.css" file, if file does
not exist, create one with a text editor.
Change the font size by modifying the number 15, then, close and open GnuCash
to see the changes.

HI guys,
I've seen approximately 3.5 hours trying to figure this out.
All I want to do is change the default register font size making it larger
for my old eyes.
I am using Gnucash v3.3 on windows 10. Just installed it a few days ago.
So far I've tried:
Google search
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/GTK3
https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/blob/maint/doc/gtk-3.0.css
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkSettings.html
and others.
Feel free to laugh but despite trying my own
gtk-3.0.css and messing with the settings.ini, (and yes disabling using
default them in preferences)
no matter what I do, nothing changes when I relaunch gnucash
Ok, maybe I'm not the brightest, but this is not as simple as 1,2,3.
No option in the program itself, could not find "select theme" app (maybe it
was there at some point).
I'm burned out. Could someone point me what do I need to change, to make the
register font bit bigger. That's it.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Alfred
